I know, I know. I don't expect anyone to believe this but it's the truth of what I saw. This is one of the reasons I joined ATS is to share some
weird things that has happened to me and things that I have seen, hoping that someone has seen it or has a good explanation for it. Here's what I
saw.
I was 12 and lived in a small town and I would ride my bike all around the neighborhood and play in the woods daily. There was an abandoned gravel
place with only a 20 foot tower remaining and me, my brothers, and neighborhood kids would climb up on it and sit. I went there one day by myself and
walked into the woods right beside this place. Once I got a little ways in, what I saw, I will never forget.
There was this little man, about 12 inches tall, looked like an elf, with a burlap-looking hat, who was dragging something that looked like the
biggest dragonfly that I have ever seen. I'll never forget those detailed wings. As I trained my eyes on it, I see that it had, by the ankle, what
looked to be a female fairy-type looking thing, It was thinner than him but about the same lenght. It appeared he was trying to drag it to safety. I
got the impression that the fairy had been wounded or something. The little man was looking at me in a very hateful manner and made a motion with his
hand, like swinging it around in front of him, for me to not come any closer and go away and by the expression on his face, he meant it. He was going
toward an old stump. I think that's where he, and his injured friend were heading.
At the same time I saw about 3 others scrambling to get out of my sight and one went behind a tree and the others went into a hole in the ground. I
was not wanted there. So I honored his motion and turned around and was walking away and as I turned around, he hadn't moved, but still had a hold of
her ankle, watching me like a hawk, and again, he nodded his head very angrily for me to move on, so I did. I couldn't believe what I saw. I went
home but never told anyone. Can you imagine me trying to explain this to a bunch of country folk? Rednecks? (I'm a redneck, BTW
A few days later
the curiosity got the best of me and I went back, but saw nothing. No signs of anything. It was very real and I saw it with my own eyes. I was 12 and
blown away.
When I was 15, about three years later, I was riding my 4-wheeler through the woods on a trail that I had made, approximately a few hundred yards from
where I saw the little people. I stopped my 4 wheeler under a big oak tree and turned it off just to rest for a minute, which is totally normal. As I
sat there, Something buzzed by my head at a high rate of speed! Was it a hummingbird? Was that a bumblebee? No, it was neither.
It was like I had a vision as I sat there, I felt very strange. All of a sudden these female fairies were flying around me. 4 of them. they landed on
my left and right shoulders and sat down. I know, this is crazy and you think I'm making this up but I swear to god this happened to me. The one
talking to me, on my left shoulder, seemed to be the leader and she was very forward and energetic. She had long brown hair(below the shoulders), the
others, on my right shoulder, had blonde hair the same lenght. They all spoke english. She would poke me on the face while talking and she was very
neurotic. I cannot remember all of the conversation but she had almost like a feminist-type attitude.
Three of her friends were on my other shoulder. They started singing songs that was so heavenly and beautiful and at times, they were moving
together-like a routine or something. They would kick their legs in a syncronized way. A couple of the tunes sounded like jazz or swing from the old
days and they were singing in harmonies. It was sorta like 'Mr. Sandman Bring Us A dream' type of thing. I don't listen to that kinda music! At the
time it was Bryan Adams, ACDC, and Van Halen for me, with the additional top 40 radio. I just sat there and listened, drunk on them, still feeling
very weird, almost intoxicated--BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT I WAS NOT INTOXICATED! It wasn't fumes from the 4 wheeler or nothing like that either. I
thought about that, but it wasn't that.
They were very sexy and flirty with the way they sang too and all I could do was listen, intently. They had gorgeous legs and I couldn't stop looking
at them.They were wearing what appeared to be a black, bathing suit looking outfit with stockings. I touched the brown-haired ones leg and she slapped
me hard, but playfully. I felt the sting of it. Her leg felt like glass. I know. It's absolutely unbelievable. When they were done singing, she said
that it was time for them to go, and told me "by sweety" and kissed me on the cheek and they flew away like hummingbirds. That intoxicating feeling
that I had was gone. I left and went home--never telling anyone about it. Later that night I had a vivid dream that I was there, on that trail, and
the big oak tree that is there, by the trail where I stopped, was alive and had my mom by the ankle, holding her up in the air and I was fighting it,
telling it to let her go and then I woke up. Strange, no doubt. This is like '___' or shroom stuff but I had never done anything like that back then
and I was mentally fit.
I did go to the local library and get some books on fairies and all that. I was trying to rationalise what I had seen. My parents ended up moving from
this town when I was 17 or so. When I was about 35, I returned to both of these places, just out of curiosity. I thought maybe I was hallucinating or
something? I don't know but when I went to where I saw the little man, pulling the fairy by the ankle, I seen nothing. I walked all around those
woods, hoping that I would see something but I didn't. I left there and went to the 4 wheeler trail. As I was sitting there, I swear something buzzed
by my ear and I thought OH SH^T! But it never came back and I sat there for probably two hours or so but nothing. No intoxicating feeling. Maybe that
time it was a bee or humingbird that buzzed by me, I don't know but it was fast and freaky that it happened when I went there.
That was about 5 years ago and now I'm thinking about returning with a video camera and other stuff, hoping that maybe I will get something. I don't
know. I just wanted to share this because I've read a few threads here by people who have claimed that they saw little people and fairies too. I hear
ya. I know that I've seen them!
Now let me have it and call me a nutjob. I expect nothing less.
